Love these!
I have used these for wet wading on the slippery streams in western NY as well as the rocky streams in the Adirondacks and Vermont. They were perfect for wet wading in the summer months since they're so light, yet stable and they have great traction. I have been using them with a pair of neoprene socks and it has been a good combination. My feet don't hurt, no blisters, etc. They are the perfect wading boot. I'm in the process of buying some stocking foot waders and I plan to use these boots with those as well. Very happy with this purchase!

Good Boots But Pinches Toes
I've been buying Korkers for awhile. My last pair of Dark Horse boots lasted three years before they started getting a little rough. I kind of liked the idea of a more sneaker like boot so I decided to purchase a pair. One year in and they've held up well. They seem to be made to the usual Korkers quality.They're mostly comfortable, but I wish I would have sized up one more size. The toebed is a little more narrow than I'm used to which scrunches my toes and causes a little pinching. I've learned to live with, but something to keep in mind.Traction wise they are pretty darn good considering they aren't cleated. I've yet to slip on a rock and fall or anything. They're not as good as cleated soles, but a good median. Other than the toe issue, they're pretty comfortable. I've hike over a mile at a time in them to get to streams with no issues. They're very lightweight as well. Ankle support is good, but I think I'd prefer something a little stiffer in the ankle like the Dark Horse. I prefer laces to Boa so that was a plus with these.I think though because of the toe issue and the fact I miss Korkers interchangeable soles, I'm going to give some River Ops a try and use these for when I have to hike a bit or if my feet are just tired and I want something lighter.In all I'd recommend them, especially at this price, but with the aforementioned caveats.

Bad QC
About 80% of the drain holes in the sole were not punched through, making the boot retain almost all water. They need to fix the QC check issues...will not be buying this brand again.
